Why Police response to burglar alarms doesn’t work…

 

Click on the video below to watch an excerpt from Tuesday’s home security seminar where I explain what happens when an alarm trips and why Police response is not the best option…

Police response to burglar alarms does not work. The only reason to have (and pay for) a monitored alarm is to generate an immediate response. Given that 98% of all alarms are false, the Police simply cannot be expected to treat them as a priority.

The solution is private response. At Provident, we guarantee a five minute response time… we treat every alarm as a real incident and do not make any attempts to verify an alarm over the phone. If a client has caused a false alarm, it is their responsibility to call us to let us know… otherwise, we’re assuming that they need us to attend immediately.
